# Angle
Arduino library for basic math for Angles in degrees, minute, seconds and ten-thousands.
## Description
Angle is an Arduino class to print, compare and do basic maths with angles
in degrees, minutes seconds and ten-thousands. The class was created to be
able to print an angle with minutes and seconds instead of as a floating point
or radians.
To make the library more useful basic maths ( + - \* / )
and comparisons ( == != < <= > >= ) are added to the class.
The library implements the Printable interface, allowing one to call
**Serial.println(angle)** or **SD.print(angle)**.
## Interface
### Constructors
- **Angle(int dd = 0, int mm = 0, int ss = 0, int tt = 0)** create an Angle, default is zero.
- **Angle(double alpha)** create an Angle from a double.
- **Angle(char \* str)** create an Angle from a string e.g. "45.31234".
### base
- **int sign()** returns -1 or 1.
- **int degree()** returns # degrees.
- **int minute()** returns # minutes.
- **int second()** returns # seconds.
- **int tenthousand()** returns # ten-thousands of a second.
### Conversions
- **double toDouble()** returns the angle as a double (0..360.0, float on UNO).
- **double toRadians()** returns the angle in radians (0..TWO_PI).
- **void fromRadian(double rad)** create an angle from radians.
### Equality operators
The library supports equality operator "==", "!=", "<" "<=" ">" and ">=" .
### Math operators
- **negate** returns -angle.
- **addition** and **subtract** add angles to angles.
- **multiplication** and **division** multiply an angle with a double.
- **ratio** ratio = Angle/Angle.
## Operation
See examples.
## Note
The library has not been tested extensively and it could still contain
bugs. Especially the constructor does not check input so use it carefully.
## Future
- improve documentation
- test more
- optimize code where possible
